Weymouth Weekend 6 - 8th Oct I have received notification from Weymouth NCTC. That due to the expected high winds along the south coast this weekend our W/End has been cancelled. This decision has been made because the level of sailors we were taking would not get ANY water / sailing time if the weather is against them. This weekend will be rebooked in the spring all cadets will be included unless the parent needs a refund. In the spring Powerboating may also be available so more cadets can get qualifications ....we will see. If you have any concerns regarding this announcement please report to Admin. Regards P.O I.C Bostock
